sfmta does set the price of the fast pass. not only the original price, but also the differential pricing that was put in place a couple of years ago. they control the price of the fast pass and level of service that they offer connecting to bart stations. so, we provide supplemental capacity in those corridors and i believe it is a valuable service. so, and then lastly just to note, before the $10 price differential was put in place, muni still collected all the fast pass sales revenue and a abortion of that fast pass price supported the payments to bart for the service. so, that gets to the point from mr. rose's office that the subsidy from sfmta to bart is $5.6 million. so, there is a portion of the original fast pass price that also goes into the subsidy. and that $5.6 million is approximately the level of revenue loss that bart incurs by offering the discounted reimbursement rate to sfmta. so, we agree it is a regional contribution that both agencies are making to this program, and we support moving forward. >> thank you,
